Rework some of LOI missions - in the past collecting mission were nerfed not to feel impossible (cbk's / ww's / Bloodpuppets were all toned down to be semi easier solo) - do the same with LOI missions. As a Tai / Str WM user, collecting 100 plus iron pieces, leopard tails, killing 200 plus high lvl mobs is ridiculous and torturing, hence why so few players have actually attempted to play LOI. This will make leveling from 52- ish to 60 semi bearable.. Ty for reading
Making Mist more active - yes this issue is more of a curse at this point - but go back to the root question... Why do most mist mains go rogue? Its all about distance. ST / Bandits is more or less the Centre of the NIN world - running from Takumi / Leaf / Sand to Bandits is more or less the same distance. BUT
Mist is its own little empty world. - Making the distance and running time for Misties the same as other villages to the centre will make some consider staying mist imo.. Here are 2 possible fixes:
1) make boat ride free and instant from port to port for Misties, - other non Mist Pay and take 3 min ride.
or
2) Delete the port and boat system, with ocean maps all together and make it like 1 large CF / Big desert sized ocean map between Bears and Mist Foxes.
